Online Obstructive Sleep Apnea Detection on Medical Wearable Sensors
David Atienza Alonso, Amir Aminifar, Francisco Javier Rincon Vallejos, Srinivasan Murali, Grégoire Casimir Joseph Surrel
Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA) is one of the main under-diagnosed sleep disorder. It is an aggravating factor for several serious cardiovascular diseases, including stroke. There is, however, a lack of medical devices for long-term ambulatory monitoring of ...
2018Can Daytime Napping Assist the Process of Skills Acquisition After Stroke?
Friedhelm Christoph Hummel, Winifried Backhaus
Acquisition and reacquisition of skills is a main pillar of functional recovery after stroke. Nighttime sleep has a positive influence on motor learning in healthy individuals, whereas the effect of daytime sleep on neuro-rehabilitative training and relear ...
2018Spatial clusters of daytime sleepiness and association with nighttime noise levels in a Swiss general population (GeoHypnoLaus)
Stéphane Joost, Idris Guessous, Rebecca Himsl
INTRODUCTION: Daytime sleepiness is highly prevalent in the general adult population and has been linked to an increased risk of workplace and vehicle accidents, lower professional performance and poorer health. Despite the established relationship between ...
2018Effect of Loading Pattern on Fatigue Behavior of Laminated Composites
Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Abdolvahid Movahedirad
The effect of load interruptions on the fatigue behavior of (±45)2s angle-ply glass/epoxy composite laminates was investigated in this work. Constant amplitude fatigue experiments were performed at different stress levels to derive base line fatigue data. ...
MDPI2018Sleep: An Open-Source Python Software for Visualization, Analysis, and Staging of Sleep Data
Christian O'Reilly, Raphaël Vallat
We introduce Sleep, a new Python open-source graphical user interface (GUI) dedicated to visualization, scoring and analyses of sleep data. Among its most prominent features are: (1) Dynamic display of polysomnographic data, spectrogram, hypnogram and topo ...
Frontiers Research Foundation2017Cholinergic, Glutamatergic, and GABAergic Neurons of the Pedunculopontine Tegmental Nucleus Have Distinct Effects on Sleep/Wake Behavior in Mice
The pedunculopontine tegmental (PPT) nucleus has long been implicated in the regulation of cortical activity and behavioral states, including rapid eye-movement (REM) sleep. For example, electrical stimulation of the PPT region during sleep leads to rapid ...
Soc Neuroscience2017Meet Spinky: An Open-Source Spindle and K-Complex Detection Toolbox Validated on the Open-Access Montreal Archive of Sleep Studies (MASS)
Sleep spindles and K-complexes are among the most prominent micro-events observed in electroencephalographic (EEG) recordings during sleep. These EEG microstructures are thought to be hallmarks of sleep-related cognitive processes. Although tedious and tim ...
Frontiers Media Sa2017Bright Light Delights: Effects of Daily Light Exposure on Emotions, Rest-activity Cycles, Sleep and Melatonin Secretion in Severely Demented Patients
Objective: We tested whether the effects of a dynamic lighting system are superior to conventional lighting on emotions, agitation behaviour, quality of life, melatonin secretion and circadian restactivity cycles in severely demented patients. As a compari ...
Bentham Science Publ Ltd2017Highly Dynamic Spatiotemporal Organization of Low-Frequency Activities During Behavioral States in the Mouse Cerebral Cortex
Sylvain Crochet, Pierre François Philippe Le Merre
Although low-frequency (LF < 10 Hz) activities have been considered as a hallmark of nonrapid eye movement (NREM) sleep, several studies have recently reported LF activities in the membrane potential of cortical neurons from different areas in awake mice. ...
Oxford University Press2017Distinct locomotor control and awareness in awake sleepwalkers
Olaf Blanke, Oliver Alan Kannape
Sleepwalkers’ complex nocturnal behaviors have inspired fictional characters from Shakespeare’s Lady Macbeth to Polidori’s Vampyre to Cesare, the homicidal somnambulist in The Cabinet of Dr Caligari. Yet although the underlying pathophysiology of sleepwalk ...
